    Where do i find my ip address for each camera.

    Just to let you guys know the dahua config tool was not working at all, it was not prompting to do the initial password setup on any camera. Had to set the computer in that range and go to the web interface where it prompted you to do this and then set the ip from there. It would just say bad...

    External Devices

    should be able to do this and use the rtsp stream. you would have to use multiple rtsp ports(554,555,etc) if they are on the same network or get a vpn between locations. Sent from my SM-J727P using Tapatalk

    Xprotect Essentials 2018 R1 Stability issues

    just in case updated from 2017 r2 to 2018 and there is a known issue with the mobile server always saying the port is in use. the fix was to roll back that portion to 2017r3 mibile server. just a heads up, no issues with 2018 besides that. Sent from my SM-J727P using Tapatalk

    Blue iris Web server and google wifi

    looks similar to how google fiber works based on what I have seen in the pfsense world. pppoe and vlans for it to work. regardless when you forward in that router/modem to the wan ip of your google wifi router then port forward accordingly the port does not open? i run hamachi at my fathers...

    Open Port Check Tool - Test Port Forwarding on Your Router Test 8081 and make sure you are seeing that as open. Edit. Nkt sure why tapatalk the pictures show up all blurry. But regardless is there a reason you dont either bridge or enable dmz to give the google wifi router the direct wan...

    strange behaviour after messing with settings

    think the cpu usage will go up since its now moving your files to the new drive and rebuilding the database? I know i did this not long ago with another drive and mine went up but not max. Also you should just make your new the highest amount of space and set to no day limit for recording and...

    BI not deleting old files or moving over new recordings.

    Not sure why you would want to ever record to your ssd, its just using un necessary write cycles then has to copy over to your other drive Record directly to your 8TB Sent from my SM-J727P using Tapatalk

    Complex access?

    good to know, I was wondering what that was for exactly, I generally have a ddns which in this case if you need a vpn you will need this.

    Complex access?

    You can do a vpn but depending on what current router you have installed it may or may not be possible. It sounds like you do have some other issues as well, are your cameras setup statically as well? I will send you a PM with a teamviewer QS code if you want me to log in and lend a hand.

    Complex access?

    Some basic networking knowledge is needed. Make sure your system is set with a static ip. And you will need to port forward the port selected . Something other than 80 should be used. You will allow this in your router, the other part is ddns which basically points to your wan ip and...

    IPC-HFW5231E-Z12 Signal Loss Issues

    We run 2 524pe's at one job, never had an issue from it regarding poe . Not power related. Good old cisco catalyst, love those things But i would monitor with the utility i sent you, it will tell you if its actually dropping or not. Make sure to change the ping interval to 1 for this test...

    LPR motion settings

    If I recall correctly 2mp at 25fps should be right at 4096 so you should have full quality. A 4mp at 25 you would want hight to not reduce quality. I run my 4mp's at 6000+ generally. Are these cameras all on their own switches/network. I never hand any issues with motion, when setting up...

    LPR motion settings

    Thats high for 2 mp. Wonder if the bitrate is locking the cameras up temporarily trying to keep up with the set bitrate. Could be interference on the wires but I doubt it. Try setting one to 4096 and see if you still get those messages. I would say your iframe is/was 25 to match your fps...

    LPR motion settings

    What are your bitrates set to? You should never be getting signal loss/restore unless you have a connection issue. Also what is your iframe interval? Sent from my SM-J727P using Tapatalk

    ohh yeah , you dont happen to have any of the dahua in complete darkness do you? My fathers in VT is pitch black out the dahua HFW4431R-Z's I have up there work fairly well but the light pattern seems to be more focused towards the center, if they were angled out a bit the light would be...

    Blue Iris vs. Milestone XProtect (for me)

    I run milestone for work, the cpu usage does seem to be a bit lower and works well if your camera is supported. It does not have nearly as many features however and pricing is much more expensive. the new free version layout is extremely confusing compared to the old ones of the past and you...

    BI on older pc and switches, is it better to use a GB switch?

    40 MB/s read/write to your nas over a wireless link? Must be a 5ghz ac bridge? Edit* just looked its a wireless n bridge. Test your read/ write speeds to that and see what you get. I would probably run a local hdd in that pc if possible for recording then have the nas used for archiving...

    1 BI server - 2 networks (1 cameras only, 1 home/internet)

    This would be ideal for a vlan if you have the hardware already insalled for it that way you dont need a second isolated switch. More complicated however . Sent from my SM-J727P using Tapatalk

    looking to make the jump to BI

    How many of each camera so we can get an idea? Fps goal for these? Trying to figure out the MP over all. I would generally lean towards a xeon 6 or 8 core thread for this as i like to run my cameras as close to max fps as I can with a decent bit rate. You want multiple recording...

    Question about Self-assembly PC for BI

    True but you'd rather go a little over kill to future proof it if possible. I was assuming 4mp as those are fairly common and what I use as well Sent from my SM-J727P using Tapatalk

    Question about Self-assembly PC for BI

    12 cameras i would go with an i7 for sure. Get a decent powersupply however and a ups that will power the system and the cameras. 500w is more than enough. Look at seasonic or evga if possible 120gb samsung ssd should be plenty as well. My home system runs off a 60 gb ssd Sent from my...
